ChatGDB

Why we included this project

Anyone who has stared at a crash site inside GDB or LLDB knows the real bottleneck is usually recalling the right command, not understanding the bug. ChatGDB lives inside the debugger and turns plain-English requests into the matching GDB or LLDB command on the spot, so you can keep your attention on the failure instead of the manual. Once you point it at an API key, it will also explain the command it just ran, which is a decent way to absorb the syntax while you work. It supports gpt-3.5-turbo and gpt-4, accepts a custom API endpoint for self-hosted or non-official LLM gateways, and installs as a small pip package you can source from your .gdbinit. Lightweight and drop-in, it won't force you to change how you already debug.
